Sides, it's a crock of doo-doo. Ever hear of Jim Jones? Jonestown? nDoes Heaven's Gate sound familiar? That's what you gonna be knockin' on.
Sounds like a load of Rubbish to me and I certainly wouldn't recommend it as a test of Faith.
Plus if you see anybody demonstrating the theory offer to mix a brew of your own concoction see if they're still as keen to play the Faith game !!!!
It's either an illusion or a con either way stay away.
This is not outside the christian scope. WE christians believe in the miraculous. To take miracles out of christianity is impossible. Christianity was started on the miracle of creation and the forming of man, travelled through a vast wilderness by fire and cloud. Today, healings and food are distributed in places no one else dares to go. Lives are changed, people transformed.
Of course this is topic is meant more to apply to countries that have more faith that the laodecian churches in North america. Awesome things are happening around the world in isolated villages where science hasn't brainwashed the people into thinking the laws of nature are broken by miracles, when according to my hubology miracles blend seemlessly into nature. And there is a time of Gods people which will come again. To say this is rubbish is just turning away from much of the bible. We eat fast food, dont we? We eat preservatives, hormone and antibiotic cow meat? Genetically Modified foods, (tomatoes that do not even resemble a real tomato) and kraft dinner, bottled dead water, how far away is that from poison foods, which are cooked in aluminum pans! now with a teflon coating! I've picked things off the counter that probably were there too long. Whose to say the 3 second rule is viable? lol. There's people in china playin with poison urchins as food. Indeed to be christian is not to be so limited in thought.
I do wish you would stop and think before jumping on the Religious Bandwagon about any and every subject....
What I meant by stating that such a challenge as drinking something that was deadly Poisonous as a way to test your faith in God is not a good idea in any Religious faith.... ( The word DEADLY should have given you a clue ...!)
What was I supposed to say, “Good Idea ? Let’s suggest it for the next Religious Olympics shall we...? ”
However, if you think it’s such a good idea as a fair test of your faith in your God may we look forward to you leading by example ?
don't be jealous.
my belief is capable of all sorts of things supernatural and the beauty is, that if God tells me to run into a burning house to save something, i know he will also protect me.
The supernatural is not beyond my belief it is, in fact, the essence of being christ like.
but i see no room in it for yours
Good luck with that.
I already killed my poisonous snake.
I can talk about all aspects of the bible, God and christianity.
uhhh, yeah. Rattler handlers get bit often...AND suffer the consequences. One thing God doesn't like is an someone who sets out to purposely be an IDIOT.
A good piece of advice; religion is not to play with. I agree with you on this. Once we agree
Logic, reason and common sense should know no boundries.
but it does. In supernaturalism.
A God outside of nature, the whole show.. everything.
Miracles.
logic, reason, common sense is all very limited.
I have a couple of good hubs on naturalism, maybe take a peek.
Romans 1:17 For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith.
Galatians 3:11 But that no man is justified by the law in the sight of God, it is evident: for, The just shall live by faith.
Faith is not bound.
But we are dealing with humans, not Vulcans
Yes; one should not test the Creator-God Allah YHWH.
It is not for testing . But for miracle.
3 persons -x,y & myself
- x is a Godsfaith person
- y & myself planned to kill X with poison.we gave the drink.Poison is nil effect on X .
The incident is miracle for Y & Myself.Not for X.
Most of us are like X . We dont know the miracles but we are getting every day .
Only devil and wickedpeople knows the miracle.
You want miracles? How about 33 Chilean miners?
here's some that weren't so lucky

Oh, no! Not "THE PICARD!" and the "RIKER" too! I'm doomed. Y'all expect what? Water into wine? Walkin' on water? Jay, read up on Rasputin, you'll like him. Really, REALLY hard to kill. Not miraculous, but still impressive!
are you talking about Crown Royal??
Cause let me tell you... have enough of it, and you WILL be very much afect
You shoulda turned right, the coke pepsi page went thataway.

I've read so many comments on this forum by 'believers' that they possess supernatural abilities. Everything from getting advice from God on a car purchase, to personally performing miracles, to saying the name of God a certain number of ways a certain number of times to have your wishes...

Do you believe you have ever witnessed a true miracle in your lifetime?If you believe you have seen a true miracle in your lifetime, would you mind sharing of that experience? Or if you believe it was some type of divine intervention, that would be along the same lines as a miracle. ...

"… if I hadn't gone to a private Christian school, I'd never have built up enough animosity to want to have started a band. And now that I have one, the fact that they are giving me such resistance and publicity, they have made me far bigger than they'd ever have wanted me to have become. So I...

Explain the difference between Miracles and Magic?If you were to drop from another planet to find a magician crutching razors into needles and Jesus feeding 5000 with five loaves of bread and two fish, whom would you think has more powers, and why?

RELIGION VS THE BIBLE.This is a striking subject as it has being somehow controversal in all ages regarding it's relationship with the Bible. Anyway, I know Religion could be man made in nature as it is widely claimed to be related to God and deities. What is Religion all about and it's realities...

I'm in the position of choosing not to follow a religion. Why do you follow your choice of religion? Do you consider you have a choice in your religion? Ans would you ever consider or have you considered switching faith?
